System Setup

Setting up your computer

Use the instructions on the Setup Poster that came with your computer to
assemble your computer.
You should prepare a safe working environment before assembling your
computer by following these guidelines:
I Use a clean, flat, and stable surface for your computer. Allow at least
6 inches at the rear of the computer for cabling and air circulation.
I Obtain a grounded (three-prong) AC surge-protected power strip. A
surge-protected power strip helps protect against AC power fluctuations.
I
Protect your computer from extreme temperature and humidity. Do not
expose your computer to direct sunlight, heater ducts, or other
heat-generating objects.
I
Keep your computer away from equipment that generates magnetic
fields, such as unshielded stereo speakers. Even a telephone placed too
close to the computer may cause interference.
I Plug the computer into a wall outlet or power strip that is easily
accessible.
Important Keep the computer boxes and packing material in case you
need to send the computer to Gateway for repairs. If you
return your computer in different packaging, your warranty
may be voided.
